Are those his actual feet? Holy smokes they’re creepy!

You’ve got to get to the end of the book, where he rides in on a white horse and wipes out the enemy in Armageddon. I’ve seen illustrations of Armageddon Jesus and it’s not pretty.

Slightly off-topic: for fans of “The Terror” season 1, there is an article in the NY Times on the exploration of the HMS Terror, one of the lost ships in the expedition, with a 7-minute video. I found it very moving. Items like Blue Willow plates are still on the shelves.

Husband, researching climate change, peak oil, how we are inevitably running out of everything: “If only there was a way to reduce world population.”

I’ve put that last lines on Christmas cards.

I was given a copy many years ago when I was a young teenager. I’ve never re-read it, but somehow can’t bring myself to get rid it.

You could try one of the blockbusters from The Popcorn Champs series. They might even like it. Hint: put on “Cleopatra” and they’ll be sound asleep in no time.

Because he keeps replacing his trophy wives.

I remember seeing a photo of Obama smiling and laughing with a blonde woman at some Kennedy Center event while Michelle had daggers coming out of her eyes.

Because AVC’s The Popcorn Champs announced that the next movie in the series would be Love Story (1970), I finally watched it for the first time, never having seen it except a clip on that year’s Oscars show. I will reserve my comments for the series, while I try to decide whether it is saccharine, or 100% pure cane…

I detest the use of contemporary music in period films. It just feels insulting.

In the original French it was “C’est John Wayne jeune fille” = “That’s MISS John Wayne.”

I concur. And high time we had a lengthy debate about the beauty of two men.

Maybe SHE does, but after I saw that movie it took me many years to warm up to Redford. I cringed ever time I saw him on screen. “It’s just playacting.” No, it isn’t.

Thanks. It’s all pretty amazing - landing on an object so comparatively small and jumping off again.

I wonder what the scale is. From the photos you could be lying right on top of the ground. We need a little person-figure for perspective.

A resounding no, because if I turned my ankle in one of those shoes I would be headed to the emergency room.

If a woman wants to look really really straight she’s going to end up looking like a drag queen.

There is old and there is old. Three friends of mine will be turning 70 soon. The man looks elderly; the women (unretouched) are obviously anything but elderly.
